Frequently Asked Questions

The Josefina pickup is hand-wound to tighter specifications, resulting in a more focused, articulate tone with increased clarity and slightly higher output.
No, each Journeyman Relic bass is individually aged, so the relicing will vary—no two are exactly alike, adding to their unique character.
The 7.25” radius is a vintage spec; it offers a rounder feel but can require more careful fretting, especially for players used to flatter fingerboards.
